SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO.com) — Have you heard about the Comet NEOWISE?
If you have a chance, take a look at the northeast horizon prior to daybreak each morning through the 11th, then look for the comet in the evening sky starting July 12th about an hour after sunset.
Comet Neowise, discovered in late March, is appearing brighter as it approaches the sun, according to AccuWeather. Researchers say this is the first time the comet will be passing Earth in 6,800 years.
At the moment, it is brighter than Halley’s Comet was in 1986. Comet Neowise is now visible one to two hours before dawn looking to the northeast.
